It’s a heartbreaking “game over” for Mythic Quest fans as Apple TV+ has canceled the show after four seasons.

On Friday, the show’s executive producers, Megan Ganz, David Hornsby, and Rob McElhenney, announced that the series would not be returning for a fifth season, but that there would be one final surprise in store for the fans. Apple TV+ has given the show the green light to release a re-edited version of the Season 4 finale, which will drop on the streaming platform in mid-April.

In a statement, the creators thanked the fans and Apple TV+ for half a decade of laughs and promised closure in what will now become their series finale. The previous version of Season 4’s finale ended with a cliffhanger kiss between MQ co-leads Poppy (Charlotte Nicdao) and Ian (McElhenney), some four seasons in the making. It’s unclear how the new version will end.

“Endings are hard. But after four incredible seasons, ‘Mythic Quest’ is coming to a close,” said Ganz, Hornsby, and McElhenney in a joint statement. “We’re so proud of the show and the world we got to build—and deeply grateful to every cast and crew member who poured their heart into it. To all our fans, thank you for playing with us.”

The trio continued, “To our partners at Apple, thank you for believing in the vision from the very beginning. Because endings are hard, with Apple’s blessing, we made one final update to our last episode—so we could say goodbye, instead of just game over.”

When Decider sat down with Nicdao in March to discuss the Season 4 finale, she indicated that they had shot at least two versions of Poppy and Ian’s ending — one of which ended with the jaw-dropping kiss between the pair — and another that goes past that moment. It’s unclear if the unaired footage will be part of the newly edited series finale.

“What I think is really fun is we actually shot about a page more than what you see in the finale, of the moments right after the kiss happens. That was honestly partly to inform those moments of reaction that you get from Ian and Poppy right after the kiss,” she said.

Mythic Quest originally debuted on Apple TV+ in 2020 and began airing its fourth and final season in January. The show also stars Danny Pudi, Jessie Ennis, Ashly Burch, and Imani Hakim.

All of Mythic Quest is currently streaming on Apple TV+.
